The Essential Self-Help Guide to Your Children Thriving in a Digital Age from Clinical Psychologist and Bestselling Author Dr Martha Deiros Collado
'The book us parents urgently need' Dr Julie Smith
The smartphone dilemma: it's on every parent's mind. When should I let my child have a phone? What are the risks and how can I protect them? How can I encourage and nurture healthy digital habits? In The Smartphone Solution, highly respected child-and-family clinical psychologist Dr Martha Deiros Collado provides the answers so you can:
- determine the right age to give your child a phone
- answer the questions they may have and turn these conversations into moments that build connection
- distinguish the real risks and benefits of smartphones from the misinformation
- teach yourself and older siblings to model healthy phone habits
- navigate online safety, digital footprints, consent and family tech boundaries
- sign the Family Phone Pledge and build a supportive community with like-minded parents.
Written with Dr Martha's characteristic warmth and empathy, The Smartphone Solution will provide the information and tools you need to support your child and allow them to thrive in the modern digital world.
